A foundational pillar of any serious eyewear wardrobe, V-Essential I is a bold, gender-neutral design that’s as fashionable as it is easy to wear. Featuring a modern interpretation of the retro 60’s Wellington shape made iconic by Golden Era Italian cinema, V-Essential I is crafted in Japan of the finest Japanese acetate for timeless style, exceptional comfort and lasting quality. Understated yet impactful decorative embellishments include iconic Valentino 3D studs on the front, temples, and temple tips – and etched studs on the functional but decorative titanium cores visible through the translucent temples – which add dimensionality and reinforce brand presence. A highly versatile design that’s as sophisticated as it is sexy, V-Essential I is available in a vintage-inspired color palette including Black/Light Gold, Crystal Brown Swirl/Yellow Gold, and Matte Bordeaux/White Gold.
